Restaurant-Grade Italian Cuisine Rotary Cheese Grater with Handle - Perfect Heavy-Duty Parmesan Cheese Grater - Effortlessly Shred and Shave Cheese with 2 Easy to clean Stainless Steel Drum Blades

I am a former chef and a constant cook. My own kitchen is outfitted better than most restaurants, with everything professional grade or better.There is no comparison between freshly grated parmesan versus the stuff in a can. (Frankly, I'm not even sure what that stuff in a can is since it has a taste and consistency somewhere between sawdust and kitty litter.)I hate using a box grater for hard cheeses. It seems to leave as much cheese on the grater as it does on my board. I've employed MANY rotary graters over the years, only to be disappointed in their construction as well as their inability to do what they're supposed to do: grate the cheese/nuts/chocolate/etc. that I'm running through there.Inevitably they find their way into the recycling bin, another exercise in futility and waste of money. As I banked my latest disappointing grater off the lid of the bin and into the cylinder, I began my quest for the next member of my cabinet.This rotary grater had received numerous positive reviews, so I thought I'd take a shot. When it arrived and I unboxed it, I was immediately impressed. Loved the design and construction, as well as the "extras", such as some small containers that could attach to the grater and be able to be filled and/or used at the table or for storage. Nice touch.The keystone design on the grating cylinder allows for quick assembly/disassembly and makes cleaning a breeze. Let's not forget the most important part: it tears through my parmesan/Romano/chocolate like a breeze. Its performance is top notch. I was suitably impressed (and that is not an easy thing to do).Now for the negative...kind of. While I was cranking my way to a pile of parm, the grating cylinder broke. One of the support ribs did not handle the stress of hard cheese well. I swapped out the cylinder for a slightly larger grate and finished the job. (By the way, the cylinder for the softer cheese does a great (grate) job on the harder cheeses, but it's s slightly larger grate).Believe it or not, that failure turned out to be a good thing. When I contacted the company, they immediately acknowledged the issue, told me that they had a problem with that and had it redesigned with a different material to overcome the problem, and promptly sent me a replacement.All companies are good when you have no problems. But here's the thing...you can't run a business and not have problems. It's the businesses that care for their customers and take care of the problems that truly deserve our business. Standing behind their products or services should be the gold standard. In too many cases it's not...but it is here.Companies like that have gotten to be too few and far between. The ones that stand up for us, well...they deserve our business and receive my loyalty. Thank you again for a great (grate) product and amazing service.

(The companies owner),Nancy, Thanks for reaching out, that’s great business! My wife is Italian, so it’s pasta almost every night along with some good quality cheeses, so it’s so important to have a good cheese grater. This one is awesome!!! We have tried several others to include metal and plastic and they just don’t have the sturdy feel and performance like this one. I thank our new standard poodle for counter surfing and destroying our last one, that lead me to yours. LolThanks so much and have a blessed day,Kenny B.

Quick delivery. As described.

I have both of these, and I use them regularly.They're not magic of course, but at times it's moving in that direction. The big one can be a little fiddly, so you need to be deliberate, the suction cup pad at the bottom does work, but given what you're doing you need to hold it steady.Nice to see a small family company standing behind their products as well, which they very much do.

Great product. Great service.

This is a perfect size for our kitchen & RV to grate cheeses (Soft & Hard) There are just the two of us and this is perfect and not too big to go in drawer. A+++

No es muy practico

Very nice quality and operates easily. It came with clear instructions.
